Evergreen Immortal - Chapter 272
Are the golden scales just an object in the pond? They turn into dragons when encountering wind and clouds.
Jiang Linxian became an earthly immortal.
It is no longer possible to be trapped in a small Qinghe, and promotion will be a matter of time.
It won’t be long.
Xue Gui is trying to get himself involved.
As long as he agrees, from now on, Li Rui will be protected by Xue Gui.
“I will definitely live up to your expectations.”
Li Rui clasped his fists solemnly.
Make your choice with barely any hesitation.
At this time, there is no need to be humble and say stupid things like lack of ability. You just have to be direct and let Xue Gui understand his determination to join him. Otherwise, how can others help?
Xue Gui is the commander-in-chief of Annan Town, and he is also an official of Annan Town. Of course, he can worship without any mental preparation.
If Li Rui hesitates to express his loyalty in front of his superiors, then Li Rui’s job as an official in recent years will be in vain.
And as far as he knew, Xue Gui’s reputation had always been very good.
“Not bad, very good.”
Xue Gui smiled and nodded, very satisfied with Li Rui’s performance, then turned to Jiang Linxian and said:
“Xiao Jiang, you have found a good helper for me.”
Jiang Linxian: “Master Li is first-class in both civil and military affairs, which means he is a virtuous man. Naturally, I have to tell Mr. Xue that we cannot let our talents be buried.”
Li Rui understood.
Obviously, Xue Gui favored him today, and Jiang Linxian contributed a lot.
If it weren’t for Jiang Linxian’s recommendation, Xue Gui would never have asked him to reuse him.
Xue Gui has gained a capable general, and this trip is considered a great success.
“Okay, I have stayed in Qinghe for long enough, and it’s time to leave.”
This General Xue is really resolute and resolute.
Finished.
He really didn’t even want to eat, so he led more than a thousand Xuanjia troops northward towards Yunzhou City.
“Master Xue is really informal.”
Li Rui looked at Mr. Xue, who was riding a brilliant horse, and finally made the above judgment.
Jiang Linxian chuckled:
“Brother Li, Master Xue left in a hurry, but don’t blame me for killing him first and then telling him.”
Naturally, he was talking about the fact that he killed Li Rui, Yuan Gao and Qi Rui.
Li Rui: “It’s too late to thank you.”
If it weren’t for Jiang Linxian’s matchmaking, Xue Gui wouldn’t have even looked at him. It would not be so easy to rise to the fifth rank.
As the saying goes in official circles, the fifth grade is the road to success.
Especially for children from poor families, this is true for civil servants, and similar for military officers.
Anyone who can sit in a fifth-grade official position must have something to rely on, otherwise there is absolutely no chance. This reliance must either be from a good background or have someone behind him.
Therefore, if Li Rui wants to join the army as an Anning Guard, he must have the support of a third-grade officer to make it possible.
Jiang Linxian gave him a huge favor.
Of course, he did this for his own convenience in the future.
His recommendation was meritorious, and he deepened his relationship with Xue Gui, and Li Rui also benefited. It was a win-win situation.
And after some time, he will definitely leave Yunzhou.
But the Huaqing Sect was still in Anning Mansion and could not be moved away. Although the Huaqing Sect itself was already very strong, he still had to choose a reliable person to help the Huaqing Sect in Annan Town.
Li Rui is undoubtedly the best option.
Li Rui chuckled: “Brother Jiang, I have several jars of old wine at home, but I have to open them all before you get promoted. It’s better to choose a day than to hit it. How about tonight?”
When Jiang Linxian heard this, he immediately became happy:
“Not today, let’s try another day.”
A time was agreed upon.
Li Rui then said goodbye and left.
The moment he walked out of the Army Residence, a line of small words appeared in front of him.
[Congratulations to the host, you have completed the primary plot of entering and exiting the general phase – forming good relationships. 】
[Being a general and a general, in addition to your own talents, it is also a must to build good relationships. Congratulations, you have met a strong and upward person. Your official career will be prosperous and your future will be bright. 】
[Complete the task and make good friends, the rewards are being settled.]
[Task rating A. 】
【Get 40 achievement points! 】
[The achievement points have reached 100 points, and the rewards are being obtained.]
[You get to know an expert, you are favored, and the expert decides to teach you the Dharma. 】
[Get a chance to wash your tendons and cut your marrow! 】
[Young hero, please start your journey to the perfect world! 】
[Name: Li Rui]
【Age: 10】
[Talents: Martial Bones, Super Comprehension, Intelligent Eyes, Great Dreamer, and Overcoming Demons]
[Kung Fu: Changchun Gong, Dragon Traveling in the Nine Heavens, Dragon Elephant True Yuan Jin]
[Achievement: 10/100]
‘The innate body, cleanse the tendons and cut the marrow! ’
Li Rui’s eyes narrowed slightly.
The so-called muscle-washing and marrow-washing is a method in which earthly immortals use their supreme true energy to help others temper their own bodies. The muscle-washing and marrow-washing can only be effective on warriors who are innate. After washing the tendons and marrow, the warriors can The muscles and bones of the body will be strengthened, the potential will be increased, and the path to martial arts will become smoother.
This is the best way for elders to help younger generations build a solid foundation.
Generally speaking, this treatment is only available to the first disciples of certain sects.
Just because cleansing tendons and cutting marrow is also a huge burden for the powerful Earth Immortal himself, and it will delay his practice for at least three to five years.
Therefore, even ordinary true disciples do not receive this kind of treatment, they must recruit disciples.
Otherwise, ten true inheritances will waste at least thirty years of cultivation, and even the Earth Immortal cannot afford it.
Those who can be washed and marrowed are all the geniuses that the sect has high hopes for.
He comes from a humble background.
It was originally impossible to have this opportunity, but unexpectedly, the system actually delivered it directly to your door.
First, he received the teachings from Master Xu, and now he is cleansing his tendons and marrow. Even the chief disciple of a large sect would be jealous of this treatment.
Just as Li Rui was thinking, a few more lines of small words appeared.
[Reward enhancement detected. ]
[Enhancing. ]
[Cleansing the tendons and marrow –> Building the foundation]
Seeing the words “building the foundation”.
Li Rui could no longer remain calm.
Friends who have practiced immortality know that building the foundation is a necessary part of cultivating immortality. Only after building the foundation can one dare to call himself a cultivator.
Now, the system actually sent the foundation building directly to him.
[Do you want to build the foundation now? ]
Seeing the prompt on the panel, Li Rui took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement.
He did not choose yes at the first time.
I have never eaten pork, but I have seen pigs run.
Whenever the ancient books mentioned the foundation building of ancient cultivators, there were two words – dangerous.
Of course, you have to find a safe environment.
Li Rui returned home as if nothing had happened. He told Wang Zhao and Yang Yong a few words, saying that he was in seclusion and that they didn’t need to worry about him or send him food during this period.
It was really hard to tell how long it would take to build a foundation for the first time.
After explaining, Li Rui returned to the room.
“Yes.”
The moment the word “yes” came out.
The Changchun Gong in his body started to work automatically, and the liquefied true qi in Dantian began to boil. In an instant, a vital true qi exploded in Li Rui’s body.
Huangting Qi!
Li Rui was surprised.
The Huangting Qi that Xu Xuan had left in his body was pulled by the power of building a foundation and exploded automatically.
The Huangting Qi and the power of building a foundation were superimposed.
The quality of the immortal Qi in his body quickly improved, emitting a life Qi of ancient trees in spring, and a wonderful fragrance.
Three days and three nights passed.
Li Rui slowly opened his eyes.
“Foundation building.”
After the experience, I realized that the so-called foundation building, of course, is impossible to really build a foundation like the ancient cultivators. This world does not have that kind of spiritual power, but it is similar to the medicinal power of a foundation building pill. Although it cannot really reach the state of foundation building, it is of great benefit to cultivation.
Not only that, the power of foundation building also helped him absorb all the Huangting Qi left by Xu Laodao.
The benefit is.
Now the grade of the immortal Xuanqi in his body is frighteningly high, almost the same as the immortal qi he got.
Others fight for a wisp of immortal qi, but he has a full Dantian!
The high grade of true qi is also very useful even if he reaches the earth immortal.
Whether it is external attack, internal strength or qi form, the power will increase a lot.
Not only that.
He also relied on the two forces to expand the qi sea in his body more than ten times in one breath. At this time, the qi sea already has the atmosphere of the sea.
At least ten years of hard work was saved.
As long as he wants, he can start a wave at any time and enter the second stage of watching the sea.
A perfect version in the 16-9 book forum!
However, because of his previous experience, he did not break through immediately, but planned to observe for a few days before breaking through.
Tie Kuang’s Fiery Sky-burning Hammer has been returned to the Divine Weapon Villa, but there is no second chance.
So we must take steady steps.
Li Rui walked out of the room.
He happened to see Yang Yong enjoying the cool air in the courtyard.
“Old Yang, I stayed for a few days.”
Seeing Li Rui go out, Yang Yong grinned and laughed: “Three days.”
Now he is used to Li Rui’s retreat for a few days without eating or drinking.
“Fortunately, I didn’t miss it.”
Li Rui breathed a sigh of relief.
He and Jiang Linxian agreed to have a drink in four days.
Yang Yong looked at Li Rui with a smile: “Old Li, have you made progress again?”
Nothing to do.
Li Rui simply sat down on the recliner next to Yang Yong: “It is indeed a little better.”
Yang Yong didn’t believe it: “Just a little?”
Li Rui chuckled: “Okay.”
Then he used his hands to measure a distance of one foot.
“About this much.”
Yang Yong was happy: “One foot, that’s a lot.”
“Well, not a small amount.”
Facing this old brother, Li Rui neither concealed nor exaggerated. The two had been friends for decades, so there was no need to do so.
Yang Yong narrowed his eyes: “Old Li, are you going to be promoted again?”
Although he was just an old man who didn’t know martial arts, he also heard from Wang Zhao that Li Rui not only broke through to the fifth rank, but also killed two fifth rank masters.
This achievement is incredible.
Maybe he can become a fifth rank official.
The fifth rank is already considered a high-ranking official in the eyes of people in the capital.
Li Rui rarely showed a proud look: “Old Yang, if Hongmei knew that I could become a high-ranking official, would she choose me?”
Hearing Hongmei.
Yang Yong was immediately angry and laughed: “You still miss me.”
“Hongmei died 20 years ago. I went to burn paper with you. I remember her husband died a few years ago. How about I help you find out about her granddaughter.”
Li Rui chuckled:
“That is to say, Hongmei’s thighs are too thin, and I don’t like her too much.”
Yang Yong rolled his eyes.
“Come on, I don’t know about you.”
“I know what you’re eating today just by looking at your butt.”
Li Rui: “Old Yang, don’t ruin my reputation.”
Outside Qinghe City.
In a thatched house in the deep mountains.
“Madam, the people have been sent to Nanman City.”
A thin man said.
“Very good.”
Madam Lingluo nodded: “You did a good job. Go back and tell the elders that I won’t go back for the time being.”
The thin man was stunned: “Where is Madam going?”
“This is not something you should ask.”
“Yes.”
The thin man left.
The tower-like sturdy man in the room finally spoke in a muffled voice: “Madam, do we really not want Mangu City?”
Since that night, Madam Lingluo has been staying in the mountains outside Qinghe City.
Mangu City was breached.
The core members of the Qi family in the city have been moved away.
The dead are just some insignificant people, at least in Madam Lingluo’s eyes, dead is dead.
When she decided to attack the city, she had actually thought about it.
So she made preparations early.
Disgust flashed in Madam Lingluo’s eyes, as if she thought of some unpleasant memories, or unpleasant people.
“It’s a dirty city. If we don’t want it, then we don’t want it.”
The strong man stopped talking about Mangu City:
“Where are we going next?”
Lady Ling Luo smiled:
“Of course, we’re going to the capital.”
She couldn’t wait to meet the Immortal Venerable. As long as the Immortal Venerable was a man, she would have a way.
She had already guessed the identity of the Immortal Venerable.
What’s the point of being a small city lord of the Qi family?
If you want to be one, be the Immortal Venerable’s wife!
Dong, Dong, Dong.
The knock on the door sounded.
Not hurried or slow, just right.
“I’m here.”
Li Rui smiled and pushed the door open, and saw Jiang Linxian standing at the door. Today was the day he and Jiang Linxian agreed to have a drink. In addition to Jiang Linxian, there were two others, Jiang Yan and Tie Kuang.
The appearance of Tie Kuang really surprised Li Rui.
According to his understanding, Tie Kuang would never leave the blacksmith shop unless it was something important.
“Come in, the wine is warm.”
Li Rui asked them to sit down.
There were seven or eight dishes, most of which were sent by Zuixianlou. Li Rui cooked two side dishes himself.
Several people sat down.
Jiang Linxian then said: “I came with you today to deliver the sword to Senior Tie. Don’t mind, Brother Li.”
Li Rui: “How can I? Senior Tie is my mentor.”
He knew that Jiang Linxian had borrowed the sword.
Tie Kuang snorted:
“You two brats, forget about that.”
Even so, Li Rui could clearly feel that Old Man Tie was in a good mood.
Probably because Jiang Linxian proved that his sword could really kill earth immortals.
Tie Kuang drank a few more cups today:
“Li boy, after this drink today, I will go north with Jiang boy. I am afraid that we will not have many opportunities to meet in the future. Tiezhu, that fool, is a good boy, but he needs more attention to become a talent.”
Li Rui was surprised:
“Brother Jiang’s appointment was confirmed so quickly?”
He knew that Jiang Linxian was going to be promoted, and he would definitely not stay in Qinghe, but he did not expect that the Ministry of Personnel, which was criticized for its rapid demotion and slow promotion, would be so efficient this time.
Jiang Linxian shook his head: “No, but it will be soon. This time, His Majesty summoned me back to Beijing to participate in the world martial arts review. Senior Tie heard that the Blood Shadow Ancestor had appeared near the capital recently, so he went with me.”
World martial arts review.
Hearing these four words, Li Rui’s pupils widened slightly.
At this time, Tie Kuang said:
“Jiang boy, I am afraid you can enter the top 100 in this martial arts review.”
